I searched for the Hebrew meaning of "still" and I discovered it means, “to slacken, let down, or cease.” While most of the psalm was written in the third person, this verse, was first person. God speaking directly to the reader--me and now, you as well.
It was a great trip. We enjoyed the warm sun one last time before the gray clouds and rainy winter that is ahead of us. We had our travel itch resolved and chased the sun on our flight back west. We were home. And though I love to travel, home is best.

Entertainment, food, and family... Our time together as a family was so good. Nightly, we ate our meal together, with reports about what we'd done during the day. We were entertained by lovely music, a superb ice skating show, gorgeous scenery, and delicious food.
Blending families can be challenging... Where are we going this time, you might ask. This time it’s a family cruise with fifteen of our blended family of 25. We know once everyone is checked in and on board, it will be fine. We're heading north to Alaska!
